3 Purpose for a Personal Financial Strategy The purpose for having a Personal Financial Strategy is to provide you with a roadmap that identifies what you need to do to achieve all of your financial goals and objectives. Having this financial roadmap will help you make more informed decisions about what you spend, save, or invest. How important is making more informed decisions? This report will clearly illustrate that the decisions that you make today will indeed determine tomorrow s destiny. It is important to understand that this financial roadmap will not stay current forever. It will become outdated with changes in your goals and objectives, tax laws, and other personal economic circumstances. Thus, it is important to have your Personal Financial Strategy updated on a periodic basis. Date Printed: 18-Aug-14 Page 3 Raymond James Ltd.

9 The Life Goals Analysis What is it? The Life Goals Analysis is a tool that allows you to identify if you are on track to achieve your personal goals and objectives. The analysis provides a snapshot, or bird s eye view of your entire future financial life. It identifies all anticipated sources of income, such as employment income, government and company pension plan benefits, investment income, as well as any special sources of money you may have identified. The analysis also identifies all anticipated expenses. This includes living or lifestyle expenses (both before and after retirement), income taxes, savings, your mortgage payments, expenses to educate your children and any one-time expenses you might predict, such as the purchase of a boat, cottage, kitchen renovation etc. By identifying all sources of income and all expenses and recognizing the timing of each, we are able to identify any year when you will have a shortfall (more expenses than income). In these shortfall years, money in your Non-Registered investment portfolio is used to cover these shortfalls. If there are insufficient funds available in your Non-Registered portfolio to fill the shortfall in any given year, then the shortfall is real. When you have a shortfall that is real, you can only eliminate it by changing one of the variables that you can control. These controllable variables include: Saving more and spending less Reducing your taxes Improving the rate of return on your investment portfolio by changing your investment management strategy Reducing or eliminating one or more of your goals By making one or more of these changes, you can go from a shortfall to a surplus. When you have a surplus (identified as an Estate ) it means that you would achieve all of your goals and objectives, with something left over at the end your planning horizon (age 90).

10 Life Goals Retirement Analysis Current Situation The Life Goals Analysis Current Situation is a snapshot of your entire financial life assuming you make no changes in your current financial behaviour. This means that you continue to spend and save as you have in the past and you maintain an investment strategy consistent with how your assets are currently invested. A 4.65% pre-tax rate of return was used when doing the analysis because this is the expected rate of return for the existing asset allocation in your portfolio based on historical rates of return. The analysis indicates that there is no shortfall, but in fact there is an estate of $167,832 in today s dollars, or $687,747 in future dollars. This means that you have more than enough resources to meet all of your objectives, which results in a surplus. The following graph illustrates how your savings, withdrawals and your expected rate of return will impact your investment capital over your lifetime.

16 Before and After A Comparison of Results Results Before the Implementation of your Personal Financial Strategy To allow you to clearly identify the benefits of your Personal Financial Strategy, here is another look at the projected results of your current behaviour. If you did nothing different, you would have sufficient resources to meet all of your objectives and would actually have a surplus (estate) of $167,832 in today s dollars or $687,747 in future dollars. This graph is the same as the one we looked at before. It illustrates how your savings, withdrawals and your expected rate of return will impact your investment capital over your lifetime. This comparison clearly identifies the impact your Personal Financial Strategy has on your investment capital over your lifetime. Relatively modest changes in your behaviour can reap very significant benefits that can dramatically enhance your future financial destiny. Date Printed: 18-Aug-14 Page 16 Raymond James Ltd.
